Masonic Geometry

“All of my best thoughts were stolen by the Ancients”

THERE REALLY IS NO SUCH THING as "Masonic Geometry," if one were to search through the official literature of the Craft. However, in that Geometry is the ‘basis of Freemasonry,’ many writers, myself included, have taken up the pen to ‘speculate’ on some possible correlations as to why Geometry may be its ‘basis.’ This, too, covers a large body of Masonic and other research, articles, books, magazines, charts, art, and related media ranging from the scholarly, to the speculative, and to the fringes thereof.

In the pages of this website a selection of material is presented to reflect some of the interesting aspects of this Geometry and the numerous efforts to sort out the ‘meaning’ of it. Other aspects of this may also be found in our pages relating to Masonic History and Masonic Philosophy.

Below you will find selections categorized, where appropriate, into such topics as may be convenient for what may be uploaded from time to time. While our archives are large, alas our labor is significantly less, so check back periodically for new additions to our postings.
